Comments

MP3 samples included. Todd was announced and performed one or two songs prior to his introduction. Unfortunately, I did not capture these songs due to arriving late at my preferred location. Thankfully, it did not rain during his performance which began on-time at 15:45 on Saturday. The day before and the morning of Todd’s show, it rained at the Ranch like it hadn’t rained in many months; definitely not August festival weather.

Nonetheless, I think you’ll like the sound, and certainly, Todd’s show. He was definitely an audience favorite, and had the program allowed, could have played another hour to many attentive ears that you’ll notice throughout his performance. An artist who I’m not able to identify, joined Todd in the final chorus of “Enjoy Yourself”.

Enjoy
